    How to recognize willy cams?

    My friend BGHayabusa has found used "willy" camshafts but he is wondering are they really from a williams... Could you suggest a way to recognize them as such... He thinks of putting them in his valver..

    check the overall height of the lobe...i.e across the widest part.

    I'll measure a set tommorow and put the figures up so you have a comparision.
